And uhh- o yeah, those funny green/yellow things you see hanging om my plants are 2.5mm square solid copper wires. 20-30 grams each I guess.

Yes I'm hanging weights on my girly.
This I do to optimize light distribution.

looks good,,i was going to suggest tying some string[loosely]around some stems and pull them out of the way and tie the string to the pot with duct-tape,,but i see your doing sort of this with those wire hangers,,,,my question is this,,,,,, are those wire hangers anchored in the ground,,,or a free weight to just pull it over a little,,,ive seen where people have put little weights on there stems to strenghten them up to hold the heavy bud better,,,,your right on one thing 100%,,,that being a ''tree'' that may grow under a powerline,,that they constantly prune thru its whole life,,,,,does in the longrun, end up shaped like a mushroom....

The weights I use to bend my plants as I see fit are hanging loose no fixing it to the ground or to the pot.

................................2
I use insulated 2.5mm solid copper wire.
Guess they are 20-30 grams each.

I did notice that after pruning the plants need 2-3 days to recover, very little growth to see but after about 7 days after the cutting I have nice tops again, who look just like the one(s) I cut off. So after a week, carbon-assimilation should de doubled for the top part of the plant.

This should allow for exponential growth.

In any case, since I use fluro tubes directly above then plant which have quite some surfcace, the mushroom shape suits me better then the christmastree shap.

Looks like my girly is getting humps :



Im happily suprised to see the difference with last week. Allmost cannot wait until next week.

So what do all think of my pride & joy?

Like every morning I checked on my plant today.
I think she's looking soooo good for a 108 Watt fluro grow, I think I'll call her Esther.

I can't wait to post some more pics (which I will do on Saturday)

YES! Time for another update :

Check out my fluro-babe 3 weeks into 12/12 :


Nice and bushy



Still about the same width as last week.



Up close and personal



Right on! Anyone here want to guess how man bud sites this picture shows???



Just for esthetics. Esther makes a pretty picture.

I've noticed a few changes now it's in flower-mode :

1.Vertical growth very slow. I haven't changed the hight of the lamps in the last two weeks. Ofcourse the 'weights' help a bit here but still....
2.Thirst. In veggie mode my girls drank about 2/3 of a liter per three days. Now she drinks about 3 liters in three days. That's FOUR TIMES AS MUCH.
3.Bottom leaves 'fell off'. All by itself. It took about 3 weeks for 1 set of leaves to fall off at the bottom. All the other leaves are cool.

Are these changes normal? This is my first grow so just about anything that happens is a (good) suprise to me!

Advise please!

Yes,
All those changes you have noted are normal during flowering. Your plants look very nice actually. What size pot are you using; it is a monster. I just have one suggestion for your next grow; ditch the aluminum foil. Use either white paint on the wall or get some Mylar. I just bought a roll of 2 millimeter thick Mylar in a 4 foot by 25 foot roll for $25. Other than that your girl is mighty sexy.

Thanks for the advice, SmknVTEC (damn that name is hard to spell)

Check out my plant 4 weeks of flowering :


Still 2ft x 2ft


Nice side view so you can see her shapes better.


Snow formation!

Yippie! 5 weeks into 12/12 :


'Godview' clearly show my plant's flowers suck the life out of the leaves.


Not exactly the biggest cola I've ever seen but hey, remember 108W fluro!


(this picture silences me)


Looks happy-go-lucky to me!


As you can see this plant is in inspiration to my creativity already , and I haven't even smoked it yet.


I'd consider it a crime against humanity, to withhold this picture from the public.
